Not completely F2P - haven't spent since CLS however $40 total in game - account started ~1 year after game released.
SLKR - completed with 128 tickets to the ult (power boost on his ult made things smoother than they were before)
Rey - I expect a month to unlock the event - 3-4 weeks to unlock and another 3-4 to get her ult, so by mid september having her 6zR7 with ult.
Then I slowly realise that I’ll still be THREE months away before I can start farming GL tickets, because of the Finalizer 5 stars requirement. I just unlocked it on the last event.
If you've got the crystals, 1k refreshes are your friend.
Unfortunately I don’t have any crystals. Spend them on ship energy for the gears. But good news is that I’m just one gear away from relicing Sith Trooper.
I’m definitely leaving GL Rey until I’m done with the farming for the GAS event and building up gears level for the Sith Trio, Malak, Geos. Still have four resistance toons to farm.
The only good thing so far is that I’m liking VS Han Solo. He’s a very useful counter toon in GAC.
What does your FO/Palp/VetHan situation look like right now? and do you know when you started your push for Rey so that other people can have an idea of how long it will take from the time that they start?
I need Raddus, Rose 100ish RH shards, and then just relic. Head startt cuuzz I had holldo, just gotta hard farm ebon which I'll do after rh finn is 7* and a full energy rose commitment while i gear & relic the rest
Well, hell I ain't no politician; kissing **** just ain't my style.
Finally done getting SLK's ultimate, about 7 weeks after meeting reqs (2 for unlock, 5 for ult). Probably about 2 months until I can meet reqs for Rey.
Only 2 weeks for unlock? That seems good. 5 for ultimate seems slow, but I haven't done it yet, so I can't know.
I did 50 and 100 crystal refreshes and spent DS energy almost exclusively, mostly farming stun guns (rather than the 6-energy nodes). I could have gotten the ultimate about a week sooner if I hadn't lost 3 times as a result of watching the wrong video. I went 6-3 with that early strategy, then an easy 4-0 with the better one.
I think it's a minimum of 420 tickets to unlock and 840 for the ultimate, so that part will normally take twice as long for F2P.

70*10 for the ulti if you don't lose a match.
Yes, but you also have to do Tiers 4 & 5 between unlock and ultimate, so that's an extra 140 tickets.

Ah you're correct. Completely forgot about that. This ulti run bored me to death and finally I can farm some finisher that has been waiting for a full month, not dropping elsewhere.
How many energy refrehses a day should I use? And how long time can I “estimate” its gonna take before I unlock GL Rey?
This depends on whether you are doing it the whale way. If you have arena earnings or a pile, it may make sense to do 50*3+100*3 on 6 nodes. I went the non-wasteful way and done mostly 50*3 with some 100s here and there on gear nodes. Aaah now remembered, I did it like this because I wanted to r7 right away and has some gear farming left, otherwise there's not too much point to unlock early. On 50-100s it should take you about a week. Less on 6 nodes.

Once you meet reqs, you can unlock in about 2 weeks if you do the 50 and 100 crystal energy refreshes. Whether it's worth it to you to spend the crystals to speed up the process depends on your situation (arena rank) and priorities.
Took me 6 days to unlock slkr 3x50 refreshes 3x100 refreshes
I did tier 1 once tier 2 once then did tier 3 three times and worked backwards
Nice! Farming the 6-energy nodes? That probably speeds it up, but I farmed stun guns since I needed so many for him, and it wouldn't have helped me much to unlock him quickly if I couldn't gear him.

Hmmm f2p is not the manner you unlocked gls, but how you built your account across all times. Are you otherwise f2p besides these relic packs?
I am also interested in the answer to @MaruMaru 's question.

I just unlocked today
Left the game back in February and just started back. It’s gonna be awhile 😂
I can't wait to see that SLKR screen in my own game.
I might just decline to activate so I can see it again every day.

I started chase this GL rey since they announced first requirements for GL rey.
My original resistance (jtr, rey scav, bb8, finn, poe) mostly g12 empty (Standart tw or gac)
Others around g8 - g11.
It’s because you need 20 of those things.

Need 15 shards on Finalizer and need to finish 7* Sith Trooper. Gear is ready for G12and have almost all G13 gear hoarded.
All other prerequisites have relics applied and are waiting.
Estimate I'll unlock GL Kylo by the end of the month.
6 Zetas worth of zeta mats already hoarded for that day.

Thx!
